The Convention Centre embarked on the path of sustainability the moment it opened its doors in 1996. Respect for the environment, social responsibility, and economic viability are all integral to our vision, operations, and business culture.
Over the years, the Convention Centre has implemented an ever-growing number of tangible measures and innovations to minimize the environmental impact of operations while maximizing its positive social and economic impact.
With the aim of providing a healthy, comfortable environment for attendees and staff, the Québec City Convention Centre has invested time, money, and human resources in its LEED building and sustainable operations. It also set up an eco-friendly event program to encourage its clients to follow its lead down the path to sustainable development.
The Convention Centre’s unwavering commitment to always doing better has led to measures such as the creation of a Sustainable Development Committee and a Sustainable Development Action Plan in 2008 in response to the Québec government’s Sustainable Development Act.
In 2023, the Convention Centre obtained Biosphere certification, which is internationally recognized in the tourism industry.
